With it being summer and all, that means it’s time to break out the grills and barbecue some meats. Now if you are like me, there is really nothing I look forward to more than some grilled or roasted huge chunks of meat. I’ve always wanted a smoker and the whole works, but alas if you are also like me and live in an apartment, that is probably not happening. Not only do I not have a smoker, but I don’t even have a bbq grill 😦 . Alas, I had to use my oven. But worry not! This recipe actually turned out great in the oven and still felt like a summer que!

Ingredients:

2-3 lb tri tip, trimmed, but still want a good layer of fat

2tbsp finely ground coffee

1 ½tbsp kosher salt

1 ½tbsp granulated garlic

2 tsp black pepper

1tbsp brown sugar

¼tsp cayenne pepper

¼tsp cinnamon

Directions

Mix all the spices and sugar in a bag or bowl

Sprinkle the rub all over the meat and massage it into the meat

Cover and refrigerate for at least an hour

Remove from refrigerator an hour before cooking and let rest

Preheat oven to 350º

In a cast iron pan (or other oven proof pan) place a little oil over high heat

Sear the meat, fat side down, and then all sides (~3-4 min a side)

Place roast in the oven until internal temperature is 130º (~10 min per pound)

Pull roast out of the oven and let rest before serving
